FAQ

How do I create a profile gallery?

After activating the plugin, go to Insta Type Gallery Add Insta Gallery. Click “Add Images” to upload your photos, fill in your profile details (title, description, profile picture), and save. Copy the shortcode shown and paste it into any page or post.

Can I display multiple galleries on one page?

Yes. Each gallery has its own unique shortcode. You can add multiple shortcodes to a single page, and each gallery will display independently.

Is the gallery mobile responsive?

Yes. The plugin uses Bootstrap and includes separate column settings for large desktops, desktops, tablets, and phones. Your gallery automatically adjusts to fit any screen size.

How do I customize the number of columns?

In the gallery settings, you’ll find column options for different device sizes. You can set anywhere from 1 to 12 columns for each breakpoint.

Can I use the shortcode in widgets?

Yes. The plugin enables shortcode support in text widgets. Simply paste your gallery shortcode into any text widget to display your gallery in sidebars or footer areas.

Does it support lightbox popup?

Yes. When visitors click on an image, it opens in a lightbox overlay where they can view the full-size image. This is enabled by default.

How do I change the hover effect?

In the gallery settings panel, look for the Hover Effect dropdown. Select your preferred effect and save the gallery. The effect will apply to all images in that gallery.

Can I add a profile picture and title?

Yes. The profile section settings let you upload a profile image, add a title, write a description, and include a custom button with your desired text and link.

What image sizes are supported?

The plugin supports all standard image sizes. You can choose between thumbnail, medium, and large sizes in the gallery settings. Images will display at the selected size in the grid.

Is it compatible with page builders?

Yes. Since the plugin uses shortcodes, it works with Elementor, Beaver Builder, Divi, and other page builders. Just paste the shortcode into a text or shortcode module.

Where can I get support?

For the free version, visit the WordPress.org support forum. Pro version users receive priority email support.
